"Dr. Willner is author of Deadly Deception: The Proof that Sex and 'HIV' Absolutely Do Not Cause 'AIDS'. So determined was Dr. Willner to prove to the world that 'AIDS' was not spread sexually or through blood contamination, that he stunned the nation of Spain in 1993 by inoculating himself on TV with the blood of Pedro Tocino, a haemophiliac said to be 'HIV positive'. The footage was broadcast throughout Europe. Encouraged by the coverage he was receiving, Willner repeated his performance with different patients in front of the cameras of ABC and NBC.

Scientists have developed a technique that could be used to deliver precise doses of hormones to people who don't make them naturally. To do this, they rewired kidney cells with light-sensitive molecules from the eye, they reported in the journal Science. When pulsed with blue light, these cells churned out proteins on demand. Ultimately, this technique could avoid the need for people with diabetes to inject themselves regularly. "When I speak to diabetes patients they say that if you could take away always having to inject themselves it would really increase their quality of life," said lead author Martin Fussenegger, a bioengineer of the Swiss Federal Institute of ...

Young women make a much stronger immune response to rhinoviruses than young men. Researchers in the UQ School of Medicine at Princess Alexandra Hospital have made an important discovery about how the immune system reacts to rhinoviruses, the viruses that usually cause the common cold. The research team, led by Professor John Upham, found that young women make a much stronger immune response to rhinoviruses than young men. These differences disappear after menopause, so they are probably regulated by sex hormones. Professor Upham said that these findings were crucially important for finding new ways of combating rhinoviruses. “While these viruses are just a nuisance in healthy ...

Combinations of commonly used drugs - for conditions such as heart disease, depression and allergies - have been linked to a greater risk of death and declining brain function by scientists. They said half of people over 65 were prescribed these drugs. The effect was greatest in patients taking multiple courses of medication, according to the study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. Experts said patients must not panic or stop taking their medicines. The researchers were investigating medicines which affect a chemical in the brain - acetylcholine. The neurotransmitter is vital for passing messages from nerve cell to nerve cell, but many common drugs interfere with it as ...

The U.S. "food pyramid" is being replaced with a plate icon that urges Americans to eat a more plant-based diet. Nutritionists had long considered the pyramid deeply flawed because it did not distinguish clearly between healthy foods and less healthy choices. According to "MyPlate," half of your plate should be filled with fruits and vegetables, with lean protein and whole grains dividing up the other half. Low-fat dairy on the side is also suggested. CNN reports: "Grains, which had been featured prominently as the base in a previous food pyramid, are less dominant on the new plate." As you add more veggies to your plate, be aware that many are more ...

Woman Risk of Alzheimer's can be predicted with 80% accuracy, says report A protein in spinal fluid could be used to predict the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, according to German researchers. Patients with high levels of the chemical - soluble amyloid precursor protein beta - were more likely to develop the disease, they found. Doctors said in the journal Neurology this was more precise than other tests. Alzheimer's Research UK said early diagnosis was a key goal, and the study represented a potential new lead. Doctors analysed samples of spinal fluid from 58 patients with mild cognitive impairment, a memory-loss condition which can lead to Alzheimer's. The ...

While the war rages on in Afghanistan the military continues to cope with a battle here at home, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. To date, the military has diagnosed 78,000 cases of PTSD, but the Veteran's Administration says that number is inaccurate. The V.A. say the real number is closer to 800,000. To catch up with numbers like that the Joint Chiefs of Staff recommend new programs to help both soldiers and their families. "There's so many people out there who are missing out and it's hard because you don't want to see other people going through what you went through," said Katelyn Taylor, wife of soldier suffering from PTSD.

Congressman Steve Cohen (D-TN) called Wednesday on the U.S. House floor for an end to the 40-year war on drugs, which Cohen said had spent trillions of dollars to incarcerate millions of people for non-violent crimes. “Now don’t get the wrong impression; I’m not suggesting that drug abuse and drug addiction is not a great problem that we must deal with,” he said. “But our approach in treating it as a law enforcement and not as a health matter, a health care issue, has led to prison populations increasing, racial disparities of the greatest source in this nation in the arrest process, and a lost generation of people with no education and no job prospects because ...

E. coli is a common germ that has traditionally caused blood stream infections and urinary tract infections. The virulent strain we’re seeing in Europe which has infected more than 1500 people and killed 17 is called E. coli 0104. While this particular strain is new, there are quite a lot of other E. coli strains that have done something similar in the past. Certain strains of E. coli contain a toxin or poison called the “Shiga toxin”. This toxin causes damage to the bowel and symptoms begin with bloody diarrhoea. They can progress to clots in the blood vessels and a break down in blood cells (this process is called “haemolytic–uremic syndrome”). This ...
